"I engaged Social Station as a consultant in supporting the Adult Care Services. They reviewed caseloads and supplied advice on case management, with expertise pertaining to Preparing for Adulthood, Court of Protection and Older Persons Maximising Independence.
Social Station engaged positively with the services and partner agencies, including the voluntary sector.
I cannot recommend their services enough and would work with them again without hesitation".

We work in partnership with solicitors to provide case management services, supporting people who have a court appointed deputy.
"At a time in 2015 when my long-time friend had been very ill in hospital and his family under extreme stress, Katie Laws from Social Station came to help us.
She offered a calm and yet concerned approach, making sure that everyone knew how she was able to intervene. After a period where everything felt chaotic, we began to feel that matters could be resolved.
We are very grateful to her and consider her input key in helping our friend on the path to recovery."

“Social Station steered me though Deputyship application to the Court of Protection and informed and guided me through the complexity of transition from children’s to adult health and social care. I now have a much-needed package of care funding a capable team around my son and Social Station are now providing advocacy for our family. Their services are utterly professional, compassionate, efficient and effective, I wish I could replicate this expertise in all areas of my life." - DS (mother)
